VAMPIRE OF SOZOPOL.
During archaeological excavations in 2012 the remains of a skeleton pierced with an iron in the heart were found. It is believed that those are the remains of the local nobleman Krivich (or Krivitsa), ruler of the fortress of Sozopol (castrofilax).
Picture
Caption: Believed to be a very cruel person, the locals made sure that he would not come back to haunt the city after his death by piercing him with an iron bar in the chest.
Picture
Caption: There are more than 100 medieval funerals similar to that of Krivitsa found all over Bulgaria. The remains were pierced with either an iron or a wooden bar through the chest to make sure that the dead will not rise from the grave as a vampire. *Ive heard the news from the folks there n convinced by the infos from wikipedia* END
